The Department of the Interior Departmental Offices Interior Business Center awarded a multiple-award blanket purchase agreement to Hiline Helicopter, Inc. to provide on-call helicopter flight services in support of the Bureau of Land Management Wild Horse and Burro and Arizona Colorado River programs. With a potential value of $10.75 million over five years, the BPA enables the agency to issue orders for aerial transport, emergency medical evacuation, and external load operations across affected regions.
The original solicitation sought these helicopter services on a total small business set-aside basis, indicating the work directly supports the BLM's management of wild horse populations and protected lands along the Colorado River through aerial monitoring, herd roundups and removals, firefighting support, law enforcement, and rescue operations. By establishing this BPA, the agency gains flexible access to rotary-wing transportation capabilities critical to its operations across remote areas in the Western U.S. managed by the BLM when unforeseen or surge support needs arise.
